| Von Schweikert VR2 vs VR3 The VR2 is far better than the VR3. I recently had my VR2s up for sale, and I do believe you contacted me about them. After looking at and listening to other contenders, I have decided to keep them. I don't think I can better them anywhere near th... | |
| speakers with BAT I did try several NOS tubes but could not achieve the sound I wanted. So I sold it and moved on.BTW, the BAT can be bettered by a good TVC. I currently have a custom preamp using the TX-102s from S&B and there is no paramater you care to menti... | |
| speakers with BAT One piece of advice. Make sure you hang on to that VK3 until the 30 arrives. I was in the same situation a few years ago with a VK-3i and a VK-30 that I won from the Audio Revolution website (that's right, it was FREE). I sold the 3i too soon, it ... | |
| Best used speaker for $2,000 for rock music You need to add Von Schweikert VR2s to your short list. In the right room, these speakers do it all and do it extremely well. This includes dynamic rock or metal. And best of all, they can be found on the used market for well under what you are wi... | |
| Isolation Shelves Yep, no problems with it on top of any rack. I do use the coupling discs under the Sistrum.BTW, replacing my rack with one of these also reaped huge benefits on my digital front end.http://adonacorporation.com/nemesis.html | |
| Isolation Shelves I have the player and sistrum on the 2nd shelf of my Adona equipment rack. But you do need a little extra clearance with the SP-1 under a component.Oz | |
| Isolation Shelves The JD100 sounds great on a Sistrum SP-1. I have mine set up this way and the difference with and w/o is not subtle. It is indeed money well spent.Oz | |
| Has anyone heard the 6N1P preamp tube? Be careful. The 6N1P is not compatible in all circuits using 6922s. You should call Mike Elliot before you try such a thing.My phono preamp uses 6N1Ps and I am using cryoed Svetlanas. They sound very good to my ears.Oz | |
| Speakers to consider in the $2200 range I second the suggestion for VS VR2s. This is an extremely dynamic and cohesive speaker. With all the people dumping them to upgrade to the Jr., you can get a killer deal on a pair. They will be hard to beat anywhere near the price.Oz | |
| experience with adona equipment racks? I bought an Adona Nemesis III and am very happy with it. Paul Lemanski is a pleasure to deal with.Oz | |
| What are your favorite monitors? Where is WarrenH when you need him????????..........................Oz | |
| Is the big sound from the big names? Warren,I am sure you love your speakers. In fact, I am sure ALL of us know you do. But just in case anybody missed it, what speakers do you own and how do you feel about them?.........just once more.....please......pretty please. | |
| Opinions greatly appreciated If you purchased the Creek new from a dealer, maybe he will take it back for the OBH-8. Worth a try.I doubt you will find a better cartridge in that price range. If you can stretch it by a couple hundred dollars, there are a few choices. But I agr... | |
| more punch/presence from Meadowlark Shearwaters I had the HR Shearwater for a brief period and I could not get them to sound right in my room. What you describe is similar to what I heard, but there was also a glare in the upper midrange that was present all the time. This didn't change no matt... | |
